Reenie Solon

Veterinary Assistant

As a kid, I planned to be Snoopy’s best friend when I grew up. When I came to the painful realization that this could never come to fruition, I set my sights on becoming a veterinarian. Unfortunately, that goal never materialized either. However, I’m happy to say that I’ve landed exactly where I want to be — as an assistant to Kristine Stellato.

I like to believe that I’m a vital part of the Helpful Heeler team, providing support and assistance wherever possible. My role varies from day to day, but can include preparing equipment and supplies, handling and loving our furry patients, administering medications, and performing basic lab tasks. 

Following a successful professional career as a writer, I left the corporate world a few years ago to pursue some “bucket-list” items. I finally dove into real estate and am currently a happy and active agent in and around the Chester County area. If I can help you in that capacity, say the word.

I also continue to write, although mostly for myself these days. 

I also jumped at the opportunity to work with Kristine and it has been the highlight of our 20-year friendship. She has helped to train and treat my dogs for years, and I have nothing but the utmost respect for her as a person and as a veterinarian. Being part of the Helpful Heeler team is a great privilege and, honestly, a lot of fun.
